Product details

Even the slightest shake can ruin a shot. The PL70's Dual Image Stabilization solves the problem. Samsung has combined the revolutionary technology of its ultimate optical image stabilization (OIS) with the advanced algorithms of digital image stabilization (DIS). So your images will be sharp no matter what. Whether you're shooting in low light, at high zoom, or just shaking hands. You have the desired image in front of your eyes. You align your PL70. And Smart Auto sees that image, too. In fact, this scene-recognition technology automatically selects between 11 different settings - from landscape to portrait. And then adjusts everything for a perfect photo: whether you want to capture friends in the city nightlife or a waterfall in the mountains. You'll get exactly the photos you envisioned. Let's say you have 2,000 photos stored in your PL70, and you're looking for a single specific photo. You can look through all 2,000 photos yourself, or you can let the Smart Album feature do it for you. With this feature, you'll find photos just the way you want them. Go straight to your shot, whether it's from last week or last Friday. You can search by hue, or even by file type. No matter how many memories you've packed onto your memory card. Not everyone can take photos as well as you. Until now! With the PL70's frame guide, you can customize the photo to your liking. Pass the camera to a friend, and the frame guide goes with it. All you have to do now is smile! Accidents happen. But the photo you didn't really want to delete is now stored in the PL70's recycle bin. So you can rest easy knowing that any deleted shot is automatically saved to a temporary folder in case you do change your mind.

The images taken by the Samsung PL70 appear sharp and rich in detail. However, the laboratory analysis showed that the camera electronics overdo the photo processing: In order to create a sharp image impression, it artificially sharpens high-contrast edges.
